Out of place

Abstract

Bas Losekoot is presenting a photo essay in which he provides insight in the psychological journey of commuters in modern megacities. Placing his camera in the liminal spaces of the city, he is addressing the state of in-betweenness of the modern urban experience. With an intuitive eye, he observes the presentation of 'self- and micro-second meetings' that everyday urban encounters prevail. The book includes photography from the cities of New York, São Paulo, Seoul, Mumbai, Hong Kong, London, Lagos, Istanbul, and Mexico City. Bas Losekoot is a Dutch artist and photographer, whose work has been exhibited widely in galleries, museums and festivals including BOZAR Brussels, JIMEI x Arles, Kaunas Photography Gallery, Villa Pérochon Photographic Art Centre, FotoIstanbul, LagosPhoto, and Unseen Amsterdam, and published in a variety of international media.
